just like a Whale is not an animal, but a fish. OK, you can stop posting now, we understand fully exactly where you are coming from... lol!!!

Check out the definition in the OED, which I posted.

Evolutionists think that by changing the terms they can change the reality.

Neither definition from the OED that you provided demonstrates that whales are fish. One definition stated that whales are "fish-like", however that is a rather clear distinction indicating that they are not fish even though they may share characteristics in common. The definition of "fish" did not include whales at all. Neither dictionary definition that you have provided demonstrates that whales are either fish or non-mammals. Moreover, the final say in biological classification does fall to biologists, not to the Oxford English Dictionary.

Evolutionists think that by changing the terms they can change the reality.

I suspect that your claim that whales are fish and that they are not mammals will not be shared even by a good number of creationists.
